Guess the NBA Player
A new mystery NBA player every day. You get 8 guesses — each one shows how close you are on team, conference, division, position, height, age and jersey number. No sign-up, no app, and an unlimited mode for when one a day isn't enough.
How to play
- Type any current NBA player and pick them from the list.
- Each column turns green when it exactly matches the mystery player, yellow when you're close, and stays grey when you're off.
- Arrows (▲ / ▼) on height, age and jersey number tell you whether the answer is higher or lower than your guess.
- Solve it in 8 guesses or fewer, then share your result.
Tips to win
Open with an "average" player who sits near the middle on height, age and jersey number — versatile wings like Mikal Bridges or Kelly Oubre Jr. split the field well. Read the categorical clues first: conference halves the league, division narrows it to five teams, and position buckets it further. Then use the up/down arrows to binary-search height and age. Jersey number is often the clue that pins down the exact player.
